LXE and RF Code Announce Hybrid RTLS Solution; RF Code Also Becomes Certified LXE RFID Integration Partner.MESA, Ariz. & ATLANTA -- LXE LXE Lightguide Express Entry (AT&T) Inc., a leading developer of rugged mobile computing Using a computing device while in transit. Mobile computing implies wireless transmission, but wireless transmission does not necessarily imply mobile computing. Fixed wireless applications use satellites, radio systems and lasers to transmit between permanent objects such as buildings solutions, and RF Code Inc., a leading developer of RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) A data collection technology that uses electronic tags for storing data. The tag, also known as an "electronic label," "transponder" or "code plate," is made up of an RFID chip attached to an antenna. asset tracking solutions and enabling technologies, announce the availability of a hybrid RTLS RTLS Real-Time Location System RTLS Return To Launch Site RTLS Run Time Library Services (Real-Time Locating System) based on LXE's RX1 rugged lift truck-mounted RFID reader A transmitter/receiver that reads the contents of RFID tags in the vicinity. Also called an "RFID interrogator." The maximum distance between the reader's antenna and the tag vary, depending on application. . The companies also announce that RF Code has become a Certified LXE RFID Integration Partner. The LXE RFID Integration Partner Certification program develops partners that are qualified and trained to provide integrated solutions that utilize the RX1 and its Spire RX antennas to RFID-enable warehouse operations. Upon certification, an Integration Partner has demonstrated the ability to insure successful deployment of the RX1. RF Code's TAVIS Mobile Suite integration of the RX1 has been tested as part of the certification process. "For an RFID RTLS solution to be effective it must deliver only the data that is wanted and only when it is wanted," says Kai Figwer, director of systems integration for LXE. "RF Code's TAVIS Mobile Suite integration of the RX1 offers a flexible and scalable solution that does just that." RF Code's TAVIS Mobile Suite allows passive RFID tags to serve as reference points for a real-time locating system within a warehouse environment. A lift truck-mounted RX1 reader combined with an onboard terminal running RF Code's software enables the operator to pinpoint the placement of specific pallets and assets. "The RX1 RTLS product is a significant addition to our hybrid RTLS solution set," says Dr. Nissim Ozer, RF Code's chief technology officer. "RF Code's TAVIS Mobile Suite allows customers to architect scalable solutions which feature passive RFID tags, active RFID tags, remote sensors and other Auto-ID devices."
